Girlie AGDee's College Search Thread

[AGDee]

If she doesn't get more acceptances, it will be the University of Michigan for her. Spending time on college confidential has actually been good for her. With U of M in her backyard her whole life, she didn't really realize what a well regarded school it is to people everywhere.

My cousin who brought her daughter here from Alaska to visit U of M is really glad they made college visits. Her daughter is going into naval and marine engineering and has been accepted to both U of M and Webb Institute (on Long Island). After visiting both, she has officially decided on U of M. She was happy to meet family here that she had never met before and said she would feel comfortable calling us if she needed something or coming here for Thanksgiving without her mom. I'm kind of excited about that

I believe UM has an AGD chapter. So maybe your cousin's daughter will head that way?

They do have a chapter. I don't see her going that direction though. She's already spoken with the rifle team coach and will be on the club rifle team. And she will probably play women's club hockey. She didn't like the other school because she witnessed a lot of partying and said "the dorm was like a fraternity house.. beer bottles everywhere." I just didn't get the sorority vibe from her!

Should hypoallergenic decide to go to UM, UM is extremely well regarded academically in other parts of the country. This coming from a Buckeye living in Fairfax County, near DC.
